Gaza: ‘Clean it out then bring in something good'
In the third and final episode of Along the Green Line, reporter Matthew Cassel heads to the south of Israel and the occupied Palestinian territories.

In this three-part series, we're traveling along the 1949 armistice line or 'green line' – once seen as the best hope for a resolution – and meeting Palestinians and Israelis living just miles apart
